I have an adjustable dado that belonged to my dad. I have used it on one occasion but am a little nervous due to my limited experience. It is a 7' Carbide Tipped Craftsman Dado. Model 3263.
I understand I turn it to adjust width of dado cut. But I am confused on setting the width. The instructions do not mention securing an allen screw or anything so the setting does not change. Or does it keep the width all on it's own? Instructions say to loosen arbor nut, dial the hub to desired width, and retighten arbor nut. Is this normal and I should not worry?
Thanks in advance.
